We are heading into March and we haven’t seen enough snow to keep us going, but the farmer’s almanac is promising snow for late February. Lets keep our fingers crossed. We are planning a day trip to Hidden Valley on March 3rd and we have our annual Mardi Gras trip planned for March 9th thru 11th. If that isn’t enough for you, you can join us out west at Beaver Creek. Sometime if the snow won’t come to you, you have to go to the snow.
Please don’t forget to come to the meeting on March 7th as we will be taking nominations for officers for next year. We will be tak-ing nominations for all offices. Any officers who would be willing to keep their appointed offices please let us know at the meeting. We also need board members. Our vote will be at the April 4th meeting. Please make plans to attend. These are the people who will be making the decisions for the future of the club.
That’s all I have to say for now. See you at the meeting.

MOUNT SNOW AND KILLINGTON
The Western Pennsylvania Ski Council trip to Mount Snow was a great time. There were several
members from BVSC on this trip and it was also fun to hang out and ski with other clubs including
YSC. Brian had a cool App on his I-Phone and made his goal of speeds in excess of 60 mph! But
Herbie hung in there and was laughing the whole time. We even skied with a “smokin’ hot red
head” who set off fire alarms. It was amazing how many compliments Herbie got on his Jacket,
probably because it is the perfect color! Raymond, did you take your $20 tax deduction for stuffing
the ballot at the Christmas Party? The group had a few injuries but considering we had five days of
skiing with about 80 skiers that wasn’t too bad. Hope everyone heals well and is ready to go on the
trip next year. Many thanks go out to Chuck Santi for putting a high value trip together!

Two trips under the belt, really lucky so far with what little snow we have had this season! Don’t
forget to bring your mustache along for your next trip. You just never know when they’ll be anoth-
er “Stash Night”. Or just download “Bro Stash” and always be ready like the J-Brothers.
The Dudley was looking good, lacked a “Little Hot Water” however.
You know them Bates’ and their shower adventures.
It makes me sad to find that Bristol’s only lesbian bar, Jose & Willy’s,
closed down. Out with the old and in with the new. We had a blast at
the Irish pub, as Clancy lowered the boom. Looks like I’m heading
back to the gym. Buffed out is the best way of experiencing the mé-
nage a trios’. I think lots of money would work also, gummies bears
are out!
Happy St. Patricks Day!!!!

You should see what I saw… I saw Chris & Jami & Gypsy Rose & Co. all feasting at Helens Restaurant @ 7 Springs on President Day Sunday after a great day of skiing..We had great food and drinks… Truly fine dining at its best.. We did not actually get to ski with Chris & Jamie … just eat and drink… Oh well..Skiing on that mountain was like going back in time to yester years.. We did ski Sun-day with our old friend and fellow member( who’s been missing in action for years ) - HACKER!!! It was fun --- and he was our mountain tour guide around the slopes… He was quite the host… We actually stayed over and skied on Monday too.. Just like the old days..The only thing missing was Krystle Rae Lucci in ski school and then her dancing on the tables in the Foggy Goggle after ski school… Man how time flies..We had great skiing and good food and it really was not too crowded… OH, By the way… We got to ski cheap.. Discount tickets @ 1:00 pmSunday for $ 30.00 & Monday the holiday all day from 8 am on for $ 50.00… FYI This Sunday same time even cheaper… See Colleen and friendsright in front of the mountain photo shop across from the ticket counter inside main floor or the slope side lodge…. Tell ‘m I sent ya… !!! Ski You Later!!!
